Gibson Jumbo sunburst lefty purchase

I purchased a Gibson Jumbo sunburst lefty. Dealing with a guitar I couldn’t play before purchase was a bit daunting at the price, but I got good advice, knowledge and happily answered all my questions. Payment was easy and delivery was prompt. Best guitar I own.
